Palehound Drops Kelly Clarkson Cover w/ Vulture + Fall Tour w/ Mitsk

Boston's Palehound aka 21 year old Ellen Kempner, is a force to be reckoned with. The honestly in her lyrics create a layer of vulnerability, familiarity and compassion among listeners. She has deeply touched fans with the brevity to use her platform to speak out about human rights and empowerment, when the moment calls for it. Her critically acclaimed debut album Dry Food is out now via Exploding In Sound.

Dry Food is a flag-plant by a young woman with a lot on her mind and talent to burn. Palehound is currently on a summer tour and the guitarist and songwriter extraordinaire is thrilled to announce a national fall tour with Mitski and PWR BTTM this fall. In celebration of what is sure to be a stint of must-see dates, she is thrilled to share a blissful reinterpretation of Kelly Clarkson's "Miss Independent".

"Miss Independent" (Kelly Clarkson Cover) premiered with New York Magazine's Vulture today.

Dry Food is full of sonic and emotional twist in turns. Recorded by Gabe Wax (Wye Oak, Speedy Ortiz), the album highlights Kempner's whispery alto voice and sophisticated musicianship, giving it a raw, confessional feel, even on louder, rattling tracks. While the album chronicles a particularly rough time in Kempner's life, it does so with verve and grit, not to mention sterling musicianship and wry lyrics. Be sure to catch Palehound live on tour in a city near you!
